What knot when using bait floss

[paul80]

Hi Guys

 

When using Bait floss to tie a popup boily to a hook, whats the best knot to use. I was told to use a slip knot, is that correct. If it is how do you tie a slip knot as all the examples I can find are to do with kniting.

 

Thanks for any help

Difficult to describe...but I'll have a go.

 

Make a loop around two fingers and the make another loop at the side of it around just one finger. Pass the line through both loops four times. Hold the bigger loop open and tighten the smaller loop down to make your slip knot.

 

Put the bigger loop over your boilie and tighten it. The put a couple of granny knots in it to lock it in place.

 

Does that make sense?

Not the "I don't use Bait floss" bit, but about the knot I use to tie baits on
